release.py fails for ignition packages

[azeey]

Tested with ign-math6:

release.py  -r 1 --dry-run ign-math6 6.15.1 faketoken
Downloading releasing info for ign-math6
Linux distributions in the -release repository:
 + focal  ('amd64', 'armhf', 'arm64')
 + jammy  ('amd64', 'armhf', 'arm64')
Safety checks:
 + OK No underscore in package name

 !! Error in changelog package name or alias: ignition-math6 (6.15.1-1~focal) focal; urgency=medium

Running the same command with a version of release.py before #1014 succeeds. For references, the working version is in cf72fde.

This is still failing for me. I tried to release ign-sensors6 and this is what I got

$ release.py  -r 1 --dry-run ign-sensors6 6.8.0   testtoken
Downloading releasing info for ign-sensors6
Linux distributions in the -release repository:
 + focal  ('amd64', 'armhf', 'arm64')
 + jammy  ('amd64', 'armhf', 'arm64')
Safety checks:
 + OK No underscore in package name
 + OK Package names in changelog and control
 + OK Package versions in changelog
 + OK Package release versions in changelog
 + OK sdformat version in proper sdformat package
 !! Automatic calculation of source_repo_uri failed.
   * git remote origin is: https://github.com/gazebosim/gz-sensors
   * Package name generated org/repo: gazebosim/ignition-sensors
 >> Please use --source-repo-uri parameter

This is an expected effect of the failure of the safety measure to be sure what is the source repository desired by crossing the results of:

• git remote origin in the current directory, in this case https://github.com/gazebosim/gz-sensors
• reconstruction of org/repo by adding package alias to gazebosim, in this case gazebosim/ignition-sensors

Since both methods don't match the script refuse to continue and suggests:

 >> Please use --source-repo-uri parameter

So:

release.py  -r 1 --dry-run ign-sensors6 6.8.0   testtoken --source-repo-uri  https://github.com/gazebosim/gz-sensors.git

should make it.

To improve the user experience I can tweak the script to deal with these ignition cases and/or improve the error message to help the user to understand what he/she should do.

After releasing ign-gazebo6 using PR #1109 I'm going to proceed to rename the ign- debbuilder to use the new gz- names.

Renamed jobs: rendering6 and ign-gazebo6 were already renamed.

Should be now ready.
